Discussion en- suing participated in by Dr, Muf- "Y. Dr. Quigley. Rev. Hugh Jack and the law governing the Con- stitution of synod being read, it became evident that diversity of view on the matter existed. whereupon and in view oi the facts disclosed and lsw as read, the 'Moderator ruled that the mo- tlon to approve the seating of the Elder was incompetent. The Clerk then moved, second- ed by Dr. Davies. that in view of the fact that a second Elder had come to the synod under similar circumstances and inasmuch as they had come in good faith, they should be received and seated as corresponding members, and since the congregations from which the Elders had come had paid their allocations to the Synod fund. the treasurer be authorized to pay the expenses of these Elders, the understanding being that the Clerk would by appealing unoffi- cially to the Clerks of Assembly as- certain their views touching the matter that had arisen and sub- mit the same to the Synod next year. - 0n the sense oi the synod bo- ing taken on the motion it‘ pre- vailed by a large majority Messrs.

At the close of his address, he asked that Mr. H. M. Jackson. whom he had found to be deeply interested with himself ih the subject, be heard, following which and after discussion by several itembers of the Court, Mr. Law- son moved the following recom- mendations which, with the report as a whole on motion of Dr. Lang -\vere approved: “i, That this synod now place itself on record as laying upon all congregations as a solemn duty the raising this year of i947 the 1uli amount allocated by Presby- teries towards the Budget of the Church, "2. Further, that the allocations for the year i948 be changed, that in each case the increase to same cations be revised for next year to rca:l accordingly.“ The Moderator then called up the matter of the Presbyterian Re- .t0:'cl. response being made by Dr. John lVIcNab, editor.

At the close of Mr. Butcher's in- teresting address. it was moved by Mr. Bean, seconded by Mr. Kerr, and unanimously agreed that the services of Mr. Butcher be commended and that he be thanked for his diligence and that a committee be formed in the synod to confer with and receive directions from him as to the most effective manner of effect- ing the desired object oi com- pleting and possibly exceeding the original amount aimed at.

S Ship Live Lambs From Strike-hound Sydney Plant (By The Canadian Press) SYDNEY, N.S., Oct, 8—Carloads of live lambs were shipped from here today to be slaughtered else- where as pickets maintained a round-the-clock vigil at the strike- bound Canada Packers plant. About 30 workers, members of the United Packinghcitlse Workers 4C. 1.0.1 walkcd of! the job yester- day. _ Plant manager C. D. Davis said the strike vtas in vlplation of the company-union agreement “in ev- ery way." He said the company had 600 Cape Breton lambs on hand for slaughter but they would be sent elsewhere. The plant here sup- plies most of the meat consumed by Cape Bretoners. Sydney local president John O'- Leury said the sympathy strike had been touched off when a shipment of processed meat. had arrived here from ment-operated plant at Charlotte- town for distribution. Adam Borsk, assistant Canadian director of the Union, said the C ‘on was being forced to fight not only the operators but Gov- ernments as well and he criticized action of the Prince Edward Isl- and Government in sending "scab- processed hogs to Cape Breton." Meanwhile, the Sydney local of the United Steelworkers of Amer- ica (C.1’.O.) approved a donation of $1,000 to the national strike fund of the Packinghouse Work- ers. Two more locals of the Unit- ed Mine Workers (C. C. L.) also pledged financial assistance. T.C.lil.A Reduces Rates 0n Gift Parcels To ll. K. WINNTPEG, Oct. 9- Timed t0 meet the onset of winter in Old Country, Trans Canada All‘ Linea will make a sweeping ro- cluction in rates for the carriage oi gift food parcels in its trans- Atlantic service between Canada and Great Britain, W. F. English. operations vice president, an- nounced today. The new rates. which will go into effect on October 15th will be less than half of those under the present tariff and \Vill absorb the cost of local delivery to any- where in the United Kingdom. Through an arrangement for immediate pickup hy surface car- riers at the Prestwick and Lon- don Airports, T.C.A. hopes to pro- vide delivery oi food parcels from Montreal to relatives and friends overseas within 48 hours. This, Mr. English says, will make ship- ment of fresh foods possible at reasonable cost for the first time since the food crisis developed. In order to obviate the expense of sending parcels from other parts of Canada to Montreal, it ls anticipated that merchants with affiliations across the coun- trv will arrange to pack and ship parcels from Montreal to the local senders‘ specifications. Simultaneously, ratt-s will be substantially reduced by T.C.A. on all forms of trans Atlantic air cargo. This is in an effort to stimulate foreign trade through airborne movements of o wider variety of commodities than has been possible heretofore. the Govern- . 093-118 —Mr$. T. R.

It is in the Christian home where God is worshipped daily that the applicant for the ministry comes from. Only the home that is in- spired and motivated by the spirit of Christ can play an effective part in restoring tlio old-time, powerful, evangelical thirst of the Church for souls. The Moderator made an appeal to the elders to return to their ancient responsibiltiy of searching the hearts of the congregation in order that they might knowwhere and when the preaching of their ministers was bringing forth fruit. Too often, he said, the present- day elder is mercly a respectable, gated-living man of the commun- ity. But that was not enough. He must be filled with the spirit of God so that he might have a deep and sincere interest in the spir- itual welfare of each member of the congregation. Golden Opportunities ‘>1 The young ministers of tho Presbyterian Church were a credit to it, the Moderator said. They were zealous, spiritually-minded, and devoted to their congregat- ions. But, very often, the greatest story in the w"orld.that of Christ's death on the Cross for‘ a sin- stricken world. becomes a. thing of commonplace. The minister forgets. He does not stop to re- alize that in his congregation .there are people to whom he may never have the opportunity to preach again-people whose souls are hanging in the balance and. who before another Sabbath may have passed on to their reward. For that reason Christ and His Cross should be exalted on every occasion. If that were done, all men would be drawn to the Sav- iour of the world. ' Many people. the Nfoderntor concluded, do not go to Church because they do not fcel Christ is there. If they were sure He would. be there, thcn the churches would once again till as they did lll days past. But the churches could be restored to their former greatness among the common people. 1f the minister would always keep before his mind Christ's saying that "where two or three are gathered in My Name. there am I in the midst of them," the situation would soon change. The Moderator of the Maritime- Synod and pastor of St. Jamel Church, the Rev. T. H. Bussell Somers, informed the congregation that it was a matter of keen re- gret to the Maritime Synod thal Mr. MacDonald was forced to re- turn to his duties at once and. would be leaving this morning for his home in Lucknow, Ont.
